Postcards

I've been in a bit of an ATC funk, so I'm switching to a new hobby. I'm still doing ATCs but not as much as I used to. My new thing, at least for now is postcards. I've done a few and I'm really having fun with them, I love getting mail and what better than an art postcard!! I joined a postcard swap and made a few, take a look!!!

The First one I made with torn up newspaper from Trader Joe's. I love their adds because they are very vintage looking and just neat. Then I color washed them with the new Dyan Reaveley sprays and added some cool stampsed images, also from Dyan Reaveley. I printed the "Home Sweet Home" from my computer and just cut it out. Postcards have to be flat in order to be able to mail them as a postcard so they differ from the ATCs since I can't add all the embelishments that I'd like to.

 
The next one I did with Tim and Ranger's alcohol inks on some glossy cardstock. I drew the flowers in the background and then added the Dyan Reaveley ABC stamp. I have a great big flower punch from Stampin up that I cute the flowers from and added a stamped writting on top. The upper left flower is a stamp from Wendy Vecchi, love her!! This one is fun with it's summer colors and flowers.
